HISTORY 


In  the  year  1903  an  appeal  came  from  the 
missions  in  Egypt,  India,  and  the  Sudan  to 
the  General  Assembly  in  Tarkio  for  485  mis¬ 
sionaries  in  addition  to  the  force  already  on 
the  field.  This  additional  number  meant 
that  we  would  have  one  missionary,  man  or 
unmarried  woman,  for  every  25,000  of  the 
population.  At  that  time  the  missionaries 
estimated  that  with  this  proportion  of  work¬ 
ers  it  would  be  possible  to  give  every  indi¬ 
vidual  of  the  sixteen  millions  in  our  fields 
an  adequate  opportunity  to  know  Christ  dur¬ 
ing  that  generation,  or  thirty-three  years. 
The  Assembly  heartily  endorsed  the  appeal 
of  the  missions  and  called  upon  the  Church 
to  rise  to  its  task  and  adequately  occupy  the 
fields. 

All  this  happened  a  little  over  fourteen 
years  ago.  This  is  what  we  have  done  in 
the  fourteen  years: 

We  have  increased  the  force  of  workers 
from  91  to  169 — an  advance  of  78  workers, 
or  86  per  cent.

HISTORY 

Our  contributions  have  increased  from 
$249,344  to  $418,912— an  advance  of  $169,568 
or  68  per  cent. 

Our  Church  membership  has  increased 
from  119,358  to  158,460 — an  advance  of 
39,102,  or  33  per  cent. 


The  membership  of  the  Native  Church  has 
increased  from  17,994  to  45,569 — an  advance 
of  27,575,  or  153  per  cent. 


Not  long  ago  some  people  began  to  think 
about  these  facts  and  to  wonder  how  long 
at  our  present  rate  it  would  take  to  evan¬ 
gelize  our  sixteen  millions.  They  also  won¬ 
dered  if  the  United  Presbyterian  Church  was 
really  doing  its  level  best  to  accomplish  the 
task.  They  decided  that  the  best  way  to 
find  out  about  these  things  was  to  ask  the 
Church  about  them.  So  they  issued  a  call 
for  a  Missionary  Convocation  of  the  whole 
Church  to  meet  in  Pittsburgh  on  January 
30,  31,  and  February  1,  1917.  The  Convoca-

HISTORY 


tion  met.  There  were  1,657  people  there 
from  all  over  the  United  Presbyterian 
Church. 

On  the  last  night  of  the  Missionary  Con¬ 
vocation  the  great  crowd  stood  and  voted 
unanimously  that  the  Church  should  lay 
plans  to  enter  and  evangelize  our  fields. 
They  elected  a  committee  of  the  following 
persons  to  co-operate  with  existing  agencies 
in  accomplishing  this  task: 

Rev.  J.  K.  McCIurkin,  D.D.,  Chairman, 
Rev.  J.  Alvin  Orr,  D.D., 

Rev.  J.  A.  Thompson,  D.D., 

Mrs.  George  Moore, 

Mrs.  J.  P.  White, 

Miss  Anna  A.  Milligan, 

Mr.  Fred  C.  MacMillan, 

Mr.  George  C.  Shane, 

Mr.  E.  M.  Hill, 

Mr.  W.  P.  Fraser, 

Mrs.  H.  C.  Campbell, 

Rev.  W.  B.  Anderson,  D.D., 

Rev.  J.  K.  Quay. 

Two  clauses  in  the  resolutions  are  espe¬ 
cially  worthy  of  note: 

“The  attendance  upon  this  Convocation 
and  the  spirit  that  has  dominated  it,  to¬ 
gether  with  the  spirit  that  is  in  our  colleges 
and  seminaries,  and  that  has  been  mani-

HISTORY 


fest  in  our  missionary  conferences  and  else¬ 
where,  persuades  us  that  God  is  moving 
upon  our  people  to  put  into  the  fields  at 

once  an  adequate  force  for  the  work  that 

• 

has  been  providentially  assigned.  We  be¬ 
lieve  that  the  407  additional  workers  that 
the  fields  are  asking  can  and  should  be 
found  and  sent  forth,  and  that  we  should 
return  to  our  respective  fields  to  pray  and 
labor  for  the  securing,  equipping  and  send¬ 
ing  this  force  in  this,  our  day. 

“We  record  it  as  our  conviction  that  in 
the  end  the  only  solution  of  the  whole  prob¬ 
lem  is  in  a  deepened  spiritual  life  and  a 
spirit  of  prayer  that  responds  to  our  Lord's 
command  that  we  pray  the  Lord  of  the 
harvest  that  He  thrust  out  laborers  into  the 
harvest,  and  that  is  ready  to  answer  that 
prayer  by  saying,  ‘Here,  Lord,  am  I,  send 
me.'  It  calls  for  our  returning  to  our  homes 
to  link  ourselves  with  our  Lord  in  His  in¬ 
tercession  for  the  lost  world;  for  a  program 
of  prayer  that  shall  be  definite,  persistent, 
and  not  abandoned  till  we  have  prevailed."

FACTS 


EGYPT — The  failure  of  the  “Holy  War" 
marks  the  political  downfall  of  the  Moslem 
Empire. 

Egypt  still  remains  as  the  great  intel- 
fectual  and  missionary  center  of  Moham¬ 
medanism. 

To  win  the  land  for  Christ  now  will  not 
only  mean  the  salvation  of  Egypt's  millions, 
but  the  saving  of  Pagan  Africa  from  the 
blight  of  Islam  that  is  now  being  spread  by 
the  Moslem  missionaries. 

Modern  education  and  science  are  doing 
much  to  win  the  Moslem  away  from  his  an¬ 
cient  faith. 

Christian  missionaries  report  an  eager¬ 
ness  to  hear  the  gospel  never  before  mani¬ 
fest  among  the  Moslems. 

This  is  the  supreme  opportunity  of  Chris¬ 
tianity  in  the  Valley  of  the  Nile. 

Of  the  10,269,449  Mohammedans  in  Egypt, 
not  more  than  1,000,000  are  being  reached 
by  any  Christian  agency. 

We  claim  2,963  of  the  cities  and  villages 
of  Egypt  as  our  share. 

After  60  years  of  occupation  we  have  regu¬ 
lar  work  established  in  288.  (See  map.)

FACTS 


INDIA — There  are  9,374  cities  and  villages 
in  our  field  in  India, 

After  60  years  of  occupation  we  have 
regular  work  in  489.  (See  map.) 

The  Mass  Movement  in  India  continues  to 
grow  at  a  tremendous  rate. 

Whole  villages  are  asking  the  missionaries 
for  baptism  and  admission  to  the  Church. 

.To  refuse  them  will  mean  to  lose  them  for 
Christ. 

To  admit  them  untaught  will  mean  to 
heathenize  the  young  Church. 

It  is  utterly  impossible  to  teach  them 
with  our  present  force. 

50,000  are  now  waiting  to  be  admitted. 

Already  we  have  been  taking  them  in 
more  rapidly  than  we  can  care  for  them, 
so  that  in  1915  on  account  of  lapsed  mem¬ 
bers,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  4,521 
were  received  on  profession  of  faith,  the 
Church  in  our  India  Mission  showed  a  net 
decrease  of  1,618,  most  of  whom  could  have 
been  retained  by  adequate  leadership. 

All  this  has  taken  place  among  the  out- 
castes.  Signs  of  a  Mass  Movement  among 
the  upper  castes  are  multiplying  on  every 
hand. 

When  this  comes  the  task  will  be  still 
more  challenging.

FACTS 


SUDAN — If  you  wish  to  get  a  conception 
of  the  unfinished  task  in  the  Sudan  look  at 
the  page  showing  the  combined  maps  of 
Africa  and  the  United  States. 

Our  two  mission  stations,  Doleib  Hill  and 
Nasser,  are  relatively  about  where  Chicago 
and  Cincinnati  are  located. 

With  the  exception  of  two  stations  of  the 
Church  Missionary  Society,  Doleib  Hill  and 
Nasser  are  the  only  mission  stations  in  the 
area  outlined  in  red. 

This  territory  contains  about  two  and  one- 
half  million  square  miles. 

It  lies  south  of  the  Sahara  in  the  black 
belt  of  Africa. 

It  is  densely  inhabited  by  millions  of 
pagan  child  races  of  the  world. 

Into  this  area  the  Moslem  traders  are  ad¬ 
vancing  and  winning  them  to  Mohammedan¬ 
ism  by  thousands,  thus  making  them  many 
times  more  difficult  to  bring  to  Christ. 


They  will  never  again  be  so  easily  reached 
as  now. 

In  all  this  area  (Southern  Sudan)  we  have 
five  missionaries  at  work.

407 


What  it  is? 

It  is  the  slogan  number  of  the  1917  Mis¬ 
sionary  Convocation. 

It  represents  the  young  lives  that  must  be 
added  to  our  foreign  missionary  force  if  we 
are  adequately  to  occupy  our  fields. 

We  are  now  asking  every  man  or  woman 
missionary  on  our  fields  to  be  responsible 
for  giving  the  Gospel  to  about  100,000. 

When  the  last  of  the  407  has  sailed  from 
New  York  we  will  have  one  missionary  for 
every  25,000  Christless  souls. 

241  new  missionaries  to  Egypt. 

150  new  missionaries  to  India. 

16  new  missionaries  to  the  Sudan. 

We  now  have  one  missionary  on  the  field 
for  every  938  members  in  the  Church  at 
home. 

When  we  have  added  the  407  we  will  have 
one  missionary  for  every  275  of  the  Church 
members  at  home. 

For  the  past  thirteen  years  we  have  made 
a  net  increase  in  the  force  of  missionaries 
at  work  by  6  missionaries  a  year. 

If  we  continue  at  this  rate  it  will  require 
68  years  to  reach  the  mark  of  407. 

Do  you  think  we  should  wait  68  years? 

What  can  YOU  do  to  shorten  the  time?

407 


Where  will  they  come  from? 

There  is  only  one  source  of  supply — the 
young  men  and  women  of  the  United  Pres¬ 
byterian  Church  of  America. 

If  during  the  next  fifteen  years  10  out  of 
every  100  of  the  young  people  who  enter  our 
denominational  colleges  would  go  as  mis¬ 
sionaries  the  407  would  be  secured. 

Or  if  13  out  of  every  1,000  of  the  members 
of  our  Young  People’s  Societies  would  go  as 
missionaries  we  would  have  the  407. 

Are  you  under  30  years  of  age? 

Have  you  faced  the  question  of  investing 
your  life  in  foreign  missionary  service? 

Keith-Falconer,  the  great  missionary  to 
the  Moslem  world,  said:  “While  vast  con¬ 
tinents  are  shrouded  in  almost  utter  dark¬ 
ness,  and  hundreds  of  millions  suffer  the 
horrors  of  heathenism  and  Islam,  the  burden 
of  proof  rests  on  you  to  show  that  the  cir¬ 
cumstances  in  which  God  has  placed  you 
were  meant  by  God  to  keep  you  out  of  the 
foreign  field.” 

Are  you  ready  honestly  to  face  that  chal¬ 
lenge  with  your  Lord? 


15 


SIXTEEN  MILLIONS 


This  is  the  population  of  our  three  United 
Presbyterian  Mission  fields  in  Egypt,  India 
and  the  Sudan. 

It  is  almost  three  times  as  many  people 
as  there  are  in  the  United  States  west  of 
the  Rocky  Mountains. 

Placed  in  a  line  side  by  side  with  arms 
outstretched  and  fingers  touching  they  would 
reach  18,182  miles  or  seven  times  the  dis¬ 
tance  from  New  York  to  San  Francisco. 

If  they  were  divided  among  the  1,057  or¬ 
dained  ministers  of  the  United  Presbyterian 
Church  at  home  and  abroad,  each  minister 
would  have  15,137. 

If  you  were  to  stand  at  a  given  point  and 
watch  them  march  by  in  single  file,  you 
would  have  to  wait  three  months  while  they 
marched  continuously  day  and  night  in  solid 
line,  before  they  ajl  would  pass. 

If  every  single  member  of  the  United 
Presbyterian  Church,  old  and  young,  would 
go  as  a  missionary,  each  one  would  have 
101  souls  all  his  own  to  win  for  Christ. 

Is  my  responsibility  any  less  because  the 
ocean  lies  between  me  and  my  101? 


16 


SIXTY-EIGHT  YEARS 


Out  of  the  16,000,000  in  our  fields  on  an 
average  one  dies  every  minute,  1,440  a  day, 
525,600  a  year. 

If  the  calculation  on  page  14  is  correct 
we  are  going  to  take  68  years  to  provide  the 
additional  407  missionaries  necessary  ade¬ 
quately  to  occupy  our  fields. 

During  those  68  years  35,740,400  will  die. 

At  least  or.e-half  of  that  number,  or  17,- 
870,200  will  die  WITHOUT  HAVING  HAD 
EVEN  AN  OPPORTUNITY  TO  KNOW 
CHRIST. 

That  is  almost  2,000,000  more  than  the 
present  population  of  the  fields. 

That  is  113  times  the  membership  of  the 
United  Presbyterian  Church. 

That  means  that  during  the  next  68  years 
for  every  single  member  of  the  United  Pres¬ 
byterian  Church  113  people  in  our  foreign 
fields  are  going  to  die  without  even  a  chance 
to  hear  of  Christ  IF  WE  CONTINUE  TO 
ADVANCE  OUR  FOREIGN  MISSIONARY 
WORK  AT  THE  RATE  AT  WHICH  WE 
HAVE  BEEN  GOING  FOR  THE  PAST 
THIRTEEN  YEARS.

port  the  407  new  mission¬ 
aries  asked  for,  and  in  addi¬ 
tion  to  this  we  would  have 
each  year  a  SURPLUS  of  $354,526

DO  I  QUALIFY? 

“Whosoever  he  be  of  you  that  forsaketh 
not  all  that  he  hath,  he  cannot  be  my  dis¬ 
ciple.” 

This  is  the  only  “property  test”  that 
Christ  ever  imposed  on  His  disciples.  It  is 
the  only  standard  that  He  recognizes — the 
standard  of  absolute  renunciation  for  Him. 

He  does  this  not  because  He  wants  to 
make  us  poor,  but  because  it  is  only  in  this 
way  that  He  can  make  us  rich.  It  is  not 
because  He  wants  our  money,  but  because 
He  wants  us. 

The  tithe  will  not  do.  The  nine-tenths 
must  be  His  as  surely  as  the  one-tenth. 
One-tenth  was  the  Jews'  minimum.  Christ's 
minimum  for  His  disciple  is  “all  that  he 
hath.”  That  means  “Stewardship.”  We 
are  the  possessors.  God  is  the  owner. 

Last  year  the  United  Presbyterian  Church 
gave  to  Foreign  Missions  one-twentieth  of 
its  tithe.  We  gave  all  told  for  Kingdom 
work  at  home  and  abroad  barely  more  than 
one-third  of  our  tithe.  Are  we  ready  to 
admit  that  we  owe  less  to  God  under  grace 
than  the  Jew  did  under  law? 

“Whosoever  he  be  of  you  that  forsaketh 
not  all  that  he  hath,  he  cannot  be  my  dis¬ 
ciple.”

WHAT  ARE  YOU  GOING  TO  DO 
ABOUT  IT? 


The  Convocation  Committee  presents  this 
pamphlet  to  you  with  the  conviction  that  as 
a  member  of  the  United  Presbyterian 
Church  you  will  want  to  make  some  re¬ 
sponse  to  the  appeal  of  these  tremendous 
unmet  needs  in  our  foreign  fields  with  your 
prayers,  your  money  or  your  life. 


The  Committee  itself  is  vested  with  no 
official  powers.  Its  sole  purpose  is  to  sum¬ 
mon  the  Church  to  a  realization  of  its  tre¬ 
mendous  opportunity  and  responsibility 
abroad. 

The  Committee  is  not  an  organization 
set  up  to  procure  money  or  missionary  vol¬ 
unteers.  Its  duties  are  simply  to  assist,  In 
an  unofficial  way,  the  Board  of  Foreign  Mis¬ 
sions  and  the  Foreign  Department  of  the 
Women’s  Board.  Whatever  response  the 
Church  makes  to  the  Committee’s  appeal 
must  come  through  the  regularly  constituted 
channels. 

If,  as  you  read  these  pages,  the  Spirit  of 
God  leads  you  to  a  larger  investment  of 
your  life  or  your  possessions  in  His  King¬ 
dom  service  abroad,  will  you  not  make  this 
known  by  a  letter  to  the  United  Presby¬ 
terian  Board  of  Foreign  Missions,  200  North 
Fifteenth  Street,  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  or  to  Mrs. 
H.  C.  Campbell,  Foreign  Secretary  of  the 
Women’s  Board,  209  Anderson  Street,  Pitts¬ 
burgh,  Pa.
